30 Best Hotels in Tokyo for Every Budget | Condé Nast Traveler
"Designed by Kengo Kuma and the brainchild of hotelier Ian Schrager —co-founder of New York’s Studio 54, long-time Japanophile, and the ultimate sensei in all things hedonistic—it has got the locals talking. And this is—full stop—a party hotel. Without a lick of Japanese-ness about it, the EDITION seeks to unfurl its world famous coolness, like Rapunzel’s braided hair, down onto the streets of Ginza from its cache of ultra-minimal rooms and mod, velvet-clad social spaces. Schrager has minted a reverse Soho House of sorts, where everyone’s welcome to come hang. The EDITION brand has found its way into a variety of international cities as diverse as Reykjavik and Tampa, lending the Marriott portfolio a certain club appeal, where guests and locals swirl together. Rooms all come with the requisite mother-of-pearl paint swatch, a fluffy blanket accessory, some wooden slatting, and a compelling light fixture: you know your home in an EDITION as soon as you walk in." - Brandon Presser
